Now, if we really should use SilentEye again, I can't do that because it keeps crashing on my Mac ;)
So go for it :-)
Keep it going!
Maybe festival of Artemis? (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acontius)
It is really can be a match, but I am unsure, because the 1st hint suggests it's medieval.
Ok, could use another computer and get the message with SilentEye:
5.13.15.41.64https://steemit.com/story/@prufarchy/psychogen-an-original-series-episode-i-two-fates-in-flight
In the comment section there is another link containing a pgp encrypted file here:

I just want to post a quick update:
so 5th word is choices, 13th is are, 15th is scattered, 41th is but, 64th is small.
The PGP had the password: choices are scattered but smallyou should use the post for the password (https://steemit.com/story/@prufarchy/psychogen-an-original-series-episode-i-two-fates-in-flight) with the numbers: 5.13.15.41.64
Decoded:
You are almost there. We will meet soon.
These are runes, if you decode it you get this:
welcome. you came far but out of our world
I have a story to tell my friend
he loves her. she doesnt know him.
they will meet at the big ceremony
what fest am i talking about?
My answer was Valentine's Day, which is not correct. :)
Awesome :-) - My guess would be Steemfest ;)
Edit: The picture shows Reykjavík. So could also be the Reykjavík Pride Festival/March :-)

The description leads you to this.
You were 1 minute faster! :)
If you use ROT15, you find this: Close enough. You need to proof that you are the true crypto master. czu.ns/iq,13500665/bwtslbfd.wfw
Ya its was reverse caesar with an 11+ shift xD
You should dig further

You too!
Obviously an avatar eye, but what is in it?
Good question :)
There is a mute sign. Like this:
So we need to use SilentEye, but first other hints need to be decoded.
The sword, battle axe, and red shield are all a clip art piece.
As spiz0r said: If you use ROT15, you find this: Close enough. You need to proof that you are the true crypto master. czu.ns/iq,13500665/bwtslbfd.wfw
-> czu.ns/iq,13500665/bwtslbfd.wfw is another ROT cipher.NEW HINT: http://pastebin.com/dv72NCCF
